The problem is that I want to stick with standard SQL. I would assume that convert() is a MS SQL Server function, and, thus, not standard (will not work in other database formats).
Did what you read mention why the data was being truncated? Perhaps if I knew why, then I could fix it.

I read that the varchar size for ms sql is 8000 limit. i also read that someone having a problem with it getting truncated fixed his problem by using convert(text, $value) in the sql statement.. Jason-- Regards, Ben Ramsey http://benramsey.com http://www.phpcommunity.org/wiki/People/BenRamsey
